Changelog

v0.8.2

Non-breaking Changes

  • The Dockerfile has been updated to build the server files during the Docker build stage instead of during server startup. This will reduce the memory footprint required for running apps.

Bug fixes

  • Fixes a file lock error that kills CLI when changing entities with wasp start running on newer Macs.

Support for defining the web app's root component

You can now define a root component for your client app. This is useful if you want to wrap your app in a provider or have a common layout. You can define it in app.client.rootComponent in your .wasp file.

wasp deploy CLI command added

We have made it much easier to deploy your Wasp apps via a new CLI command, wasp deploy. 🚀 This release adds support for Fly.io, but we hope to add more hosting providers soon!

Import Wasp entity types (on frontend and backend)

You can now import and use the types of Wasp entities anywhere in your code.

Let's assume your Wasp file contains the following entity:

entity Task {=psl
    id          Int     @id @default(autoincrement())
    description String
    isDone      Boolean @default(false)
    user        User    @relation(fields: [userId], references: [id])
    userId      Int
psl=}

Here's how a file on your backend can use it:

import { Task } from '@wasp/entities/Task'

const getTasks = (args, context) => {
    const tasks: Task[] = // ...
    // ...
}

And here's how a frontend component can use it:

// ...
import { useQuery } from '@wasp/queries'
import getTasks from '@wasp/queries/getTasks.js'
import { Task } from '@wasp/entities'

type TaskPayload = Pick<Task, "id">

const Todo = (props: any) => {
  // The variable 'task' will now have the type Task.
  const { data: task } = useQuery<TaskPayload, Task>(getTask, { id: taskId })
  // ...
}

Automatically generated types for Queries and Actions

Wasp now automatically generates appropriate types for the operations specified in your .wasp file. This reduces duplication and eliminates possible errors (i.e., no way to specify incorrect entities). Assuming your .wasp file looks like this:

query getTasks {
  fn: import { getTasks } from "@server/queries.js",
  entities: [Task]
}

You'll get the following feature:

import { Task } from '@wasp/entities'
import { GetTasks} from '@wasp/queries'

type Payload = Pick<Task, 'isDone'>;

// Use the type parameters specify the Query's argument and return types.
const getTasks: GetTasks<Payload, Task[]> = (args, context) => {
  // Thanks to the definition in your .wasp file, the compiler knows the type of
  // `context` (and that it contains the `Task` entity).
  //
  // Thanks to the first type argument in `GetTasks`, the compiler knows `args`
  // is of type `Payload`.
  //
  // Thanks to the first type argument in `GetTasks`, the compiler knows the
  // function must return a value of type `Task[]`.
}

Uninstall command

If you want to uninstall Wasp from your system, you can now do so with:

wasp uninstall

It will remove all of the Wasp binaries and data from your system.

v0.8.1

Remove npm version constraint

We are removing the requirement for a specific npm version to enable following the Node.js LTS releases (Node.js LTS releases sometimes bump the major npm version). We are still requiring Node.js to be version 18, but the npm version can be anything and for most of Wasp users it will be the version that comes with Node.js.

v0.8.0

BREAKING CHANGES

  • Social auth had several breaking changes as we added a new provider (GitHub).
    • Buttons and sign in URLs now have a different, standardized import name for each provider.
      • Google exe: import { SignInButton as GoogleSignInButton, signInUrl, logoUrl } from '@wasp/auth/buttons/Google'
    • Buttons themselves have been restyled to make them more uniform, and no longer take an optional height parameter.
    • Social config object now use a clientID property instead of clientId.

GitHub added as a social login

We have added GitHub as another social login option. It is as easy to use as Google, and only requires adding gitHub to your app.auth.methods plus two environment variables (GITHUB_CLIENT_ID and GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET)! Check out the docs for more.

v0.7.3

MINOR CLI BREAKING CHANGE

  • The CLI command for applying a migration with a name has changed from wasp db migrate-dev foo to wasp db migrate-dev --name foo. This allowed us to add more flags, like --create-only.

Bug fixes

  • Again fixed Dockerfile generated with wasp build (after fixing it only half-way last time :facepalm) -> Prisma would break due to unsupported version of openssl.

v0.7.2

Bug fixes

v0.7.1

Bug fixes

  • Fixed a bug that was causing Wasp to forget about compiling backend code before running it in production

v0.7.0 - Beta Release!

BREAKING CHANGES

Significant changes to Wasp project structure

This was the file tree of a newly generated project in the previous version of Wasp (i.e., this was what you used to get by running wasp new project):

.
├── ext
│   ├── Main.css
│   ├── MainPage.js
│   ├── .waspignore
│   └── waspLogo.png
├── .gitignore
├── main.wasp
└── .wasproot

This is the file tree of a newly generated project in the newest release of Wasp (i.e., this is what you will get by running wasp new project from this point onwards):

.
├── .gitignore
├── main.wasp
├── src
│   ├── client
│   │   ├── Main.css
│   │   ├── MainPage.jsx
│   │   ├── react-app-env.d.ts
│   │   ├── tsconfig.json
│   │   └── waspLogo.png
│   ├── server
│   │   └── tsconfig.json
│   ├── shared
│   │   └── tsconfig.json
│   └── .waspignore
└── .wasproot

Main differences:

  • All server-side code must be located inside the src/server directory. Wasp declarations must import this code with import foo from "@server/foo.js" (instead of import foo from "@ext/foo.js")
  • All client-side code must be located inside the src/client directory. Wasp declarations must import this code with import foo from "@client/bar.js" (instead of import bar from "@ext/bar.js")
  • All shared code (i.e., used on both the client and the server) must be located inside the src/shared and imported where needed through a relative import.
  • Each of these subdirectories (i.e., src/server, src/client, and src/shared) comes with a pregenerated tsconfig.json file. This file helps with IDE support (e.g., jumping to definitions, previewing types, etc.) and you shouldn't delete it. The same goes for react-app-env.d.ts

The new structure is fully reflected in our docs, but we'll also provide a quick guide for migrating existing projects.

Migrating an existing Wasp project to the new structure

You can easily migrate your old Wasp project to the new structure by following a series of steps. Assuming you have a project called foo inside the directory foo, you should:

  1. Install the latest version of Wasp

  2. Rename your project's root directory to something like foo_old

  3. Create a new project by running wasp new foo

  4. Copy all server-side code from foo_old/ext to foo/src/server

  5. Copy all client-side code from foo_old/ext to foo/src/client

  6. Copy all shared code (if any) from foo_old/ext to foo/src/shared and adapt imports in files that reference it:

    • For example, import bar from './bar.js' becomes import bar from "../shared/bar.js"
  7. Copy all lines you might have added to foo_old/.gitignore into foo/.gitignore

  8. Finally, copy foo_old/main.wasp to foo/main.wasp and correct external imports:

    • Queries, Actions, Jobs, and the Server setup function must import their code from @server
    • Pages and the Client setup function must import their code from @client

    For example, if you previously had something like:

    page LoginPage {
      // This previously resolved to ext/LoginPage.js
      component: import Login from "@ext/LoginPage.js"
    }
    
    // ...
    
    query getTasks {
      // This previously resolved to ext/queries.js
      fn: import { getTasks } from "@ext/queries.js",
    }
    

    You should change it to:

    page LoginPage {
      // This resolves to src/client/LoginPage.js
      component: import Login from "@client/LoginPage"
    }
    
    // ...
    
    query getTasks {
      // This resolves to src/server/queries.js
      fn: import { getTasks } from "@server/queries.js",
    }
    

    Do this for all external imports in your .wasp file. After you're done, there shouldn't be any occurences of the string "@ext".

That's it! You should now have a fully working Wasp project in the foo directory.

[NEW FEATURE] TypeScript support

Wasp now allows you to write TS and TSX files. Some (but not all) Wasp features come with type definitions. Except more type definitions and even better integration with TypeScript in future versions!

[NEW FEATURE] Dockerfile customization

You can now customize the default Wasp Dockerfile by either extending/replacing our build stages or using your own custom logic. To make use of this feature, simply add a Dockerfile to the root of your project and it will be appended to the bottom of the existing Wasp Dockerfile.

[NEW FEATURE] Tailwind CSS support

You can now use the Tailwind CSS framework in your project by simply adding two config files. Check out the Integrations section of our Docs for more!

v0.6.0.0 (2022/09/29)

BREAKING CHANGES

  • The EmailAndPassword auth method has been renamed usernameAndPassword to better reflect the current usage. Email validation will be addressed in the future.
    • This means the auth.userEntity model should now have field called username (instead of email, as before).
      • If you'd like to treat the old email field as username, you can create a migration file like so:
        $ cd migrations
        $ mkdir "migrations/`date -n +%Y%m%d%H%M%S`_some_name" && touch $_/migration.sql
        
        You can then add contents like the following:
          -- Drop the old index (NOTE: name may vary based on Prisma version)
        DROP INDEX "User_email_key";
        
        -- Alter the table to rename the column, thus preserving the data
        ALTER TABLE "User"
        RENAME COLUMN "email" TO "username";
        
        -- Create a new index
        CREATE UNIQUE INDEX "User_username_key" ON "User"("username");
        
        • NOTE: If you simply changed email to username in your .wasp file, Prisma will try to drop the table and recreate it, which is likely not what you want if you have data you want to preserve.
      • If you would like to add a new username column and keep email as is, be sure to add a calculated value in the migration (perhaps a random string, or something based on the email). The username column should remain NOT NULL and UNIQUE.
  • WASP_WEB_CLIENT_URL is now a required environment variable to improve CORS security. It is set by default in development. In production, this should point to the URL where your frontend app is being hosted.
  • The generated Dockerfile has been updated from node:14-alpine to node:16-alpine.
  • Wasp Jobs callback function arguments have been updated to the following: async function jobHandler(args, context). Jobs can now make use of entities, accessed via context, like Operations. Additionally, the data passed into the Job handler function are no longer wrapped in a data property, and are now instead accessed exactly as they are supplied via args.
  • React got updated to React 17.

[NEW FEATURE] Google is now a supported authentication method!

You can now offer your users the ability to sign in with Google! Enabling it is just a few lines and offers a fast, easy, and secure way to get users into your app! We also have a comprehensive setup guide for creating a new app in the Google Developer Console.

Stay tuned, as more external auth methods will be added in the future. Let us know what you'd like to see support for next!

[NEW FEATURE] Wasp Language Server

Now, your installation of Wasp also brings Wasp language server with it! This means live error reporting in Wasp files in supported IDEs (currently only VSCode).

Make sure to update your Wasp VSCode extension to get the benefits of Wasp Language Server.

[NEW FEATURE] Optimistic updates via useAction hook

We added useAction hook to our JS API, which allows you to specify optimistic update details for an Action. This means that, if you have a good idea of how an Action will affect the state on the client, you can perform those changes immediatelly upon its call (instead of waiting for Action to finish), by modifying what specific Queries currently return. Once Action is actually done, related Queries will be unvalidated as usual and therefore fetch the real result, but in the meantime the changes you specified via optimistic updates will be visible.

This is great for apps where there is a lot of interactivity and you want the UI to update instantly with your changes, even as they are still being saved to the server.

Check out https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/language/features#the-useaction-hook for more details.

Bug fixes

  • Works around a sodium-native bug (used by a Wasp dependency, secure-password) that caused signup/login runtime issues with Heroku deployments by downgrading it from v3.4.1 to v3.3.0 via a package.json override. Ref: https://github.com/sodium-friends/sodium-native/issues/160
  • Improved warnings by Wasp to do database migration -> now there are less false positives.

v0.5.2.1 (2022/07/14)

Bug fixes

  • Made wasp CLI more robust regarding encoding used on the machine.
  • Worked around the bug in latest npm, so that Wasp now again supports latest LTS npm version.

v0.5.2.0 (2022/06/23)

Upgraded Prisma to latest version (13.15.2)

Among various other things, this brins support for OpenSSL3. So if you couldn't run Wasp on your operating system due to Prisma not supporting OpenSSL3, those days are over!


v0.5.1.0 (2022/06/17)

[NEW FEATURES]

  • There is now app.client.setup function in .wasp that you can use to define custom setup you want to do on client before on its initialization.
  • You can now configure the React Query's QueryClient by calling special function exposed by Wasp in your JS (in app.client.setup).

Various improvements and bug fixes

  • Limited Wasp node version to <=16.15.0 for now, since there is a problem with later versions and how Wasp uses npx.
  • Reduced some of the redundant warning messages in Wasp CLI.
  • Fixed unresponsive UI on server reload.

v0.5.0.0 (2022/05/18)

[NEW FEATURE] Wasp now has support for running Jobs!

If you have server tasks that you do not want to handle as part of the normal request-response cycle, now Wasp allows you to make that function a Job and it will gain some "superpowers"!

Jobs will persist between server restarts, can be retried if they fail, and they can even be delayed until the future (or have a recurring schedule)!

Some examples where you may want to use a Job on the server include sending an email, making an HTTP request to some external API, or doing some nightly calculations.

To run Jobs, you don't need any additional infrastructure at the moment, just a Postgre database that you anyway need to deploy Wasp to production.

BREAKING CHANGES

  • Wasp now requires latest LTS version of NodeJS
    • We had a bit of issues with being too relaxed on the version of NodeJS that can be used with Wasp so we thightened it up a bit. We also added a more thorough check in Wasp for it, that will warn you very explicitely if you are using the wrong version of Node.
  • Updated react-query to v3
    • This brings some new features from react query while also laying the foundation for the further features we are building on top of it in Wasp (coming soon!).
  • Updated python to python3 in Dockerfile generated upon wasp build.

Various improvements

  • Finally fixed a bug with orphaned processes in development.
  • Various other bug fixes, doc improvements, and refactorings.

v0.4.0.0 (2022/02/23)

[BREAKING CHANGE] Upgrading Prisma to version 3.9.1

We are happy to announce Wasp is now using a much newer version of Prisma! This change does not impact the Wasp DSL support for Prisma, but it does come with some caveats from Prisma based on your usage. Please see this note for any breaking changes: https://www.prisma.io/docs/guides/upgrade-guides/upgrading-versions/upgrading-to-prisma-3

Note: When you first migrate after upgrading, you will likely see a new migration created for 3.x specific features related to updating foreign keys and indexes.

Various improvements

  • Automatically regenerating your Prisma client, as needed, based on your Prisma schema changes.
  • Tracking your NPM project dependency changes and automatically invoking npm install, as needed, so you are always up to date.
  • and more!

v0.3.0.0 (2022/02/04)

[BREAKING CHANGE] New Wasp-lang syntax!

Mostly it is very similar to what it was before, with some following bigger changes:

  • auth, dependencies, and couple of other "singleton" delcarations now became part of app declaration.
  • All declarations now need to have name, including route.
  • route has different syntax.
  • dependencies have different syntax.

For exact details about new syntax, check https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/language/syntax .

Various improvements

  • Better compiler error messages.
  • Nicer CLI output.
  • Added delay on recompilation to avoid redundant recompiling.
  • Added onAuthSucceededRedirectTo field in app.
  • and more!
